Outlook Connector Without Mail Server

Installed Java Connector (v 7.2.310.1) for MS Outlook 2002 with SP3.
I have different usernames and passwords for the mail server and the calendar server. Used fake server name for the mail server in the deployment program, and kept getting the 'Unable to connect to the new server' error when installing on the end user computer.
Is it possible to use the connector just to connect to the sun calendar server and not configure the other servers?

Is it possible to use the connector just to connect to the sun calendar server and not configure the other servers?it's not possible to use the Outlook connector without any of the following components. Missing any of the following will result in a large number of warning/errors (and potentially crashes of outlook):
-> Sun Calendar Server (calendar data)
-> IMAP server (email data)
-> UWC instance (addressbook data)
You could probably use a non-Sun email server but this would obviously not be a supported configuration and the username/password would have to be the same as the other three servers.

Calendar server and address book server login fails with outlook connector

Hi all,
I have installed Java Communication Suite 5 according to the doc http://blogs.sun.com/factotum/resource/comms5-install-linux.html.
When i deploy the connector i get the pop ups saying "Server:servername:3080
Error:service not available" also
"Server:servername:80/uwc"
Error:service not available"
asking to login to calendar server and address book server.Clicking "OK" allows install.
In outlook i can send and receive mails but not the meeting requests.It gives the error "login to calendar server" when i create a meeting request.
Please let me know what i have to do to get rid of the error.The username and passwd entered is correct.

Hi,
When i deploy the connector i get the pop ups saying
"Server:servername:3080
Error:service not available" also Do you get exactly what you say above, or have you substituted in the real server name for "Server:servername:" above?
I would check through the outlook connector deployment configuration to verify that you have inserted valid information into all of the host & port fields - perhaps check the .ini file that is created to see if it has "Server" and "servername" listed.
"Server:servername:80/uwc"
Error:service not available"You are able to log into UWC via the web-interface and access your calendar/pab and edit/modify/delete calendar & addressbook entries right? The services are all up?
asking to login to calendar server and address book
server.Clicking "OK" allows install.The outlook connector deployment software gives you the option to increase the logging level, try that and see what the logs say - what was it trying to connect to/check which failed.
In outlook i can send and receive mails but not the
meeting requests.It gives the error "login to
calendar server" when i create a meeting request.
Please let me know what i have to do to get rid of
the error.The username and passwd entered is
correct.I suspect this is more of an underlying configuration issue that needs to be sorted out, once that happens you shouldn't have to keep logging in.

Outlook connector problem with Calendar server

Hi
I wanted to use MS outlook as the email client for my sun messaging sytem. For this I have downloaded one program, when I run it , it has created a configurable program folder. Through admin program, I have created one file named xyz.ini , in which I have specified all my sun messaging server, directory server, calendar server. And in User Profiles tab I have chosen that 'create new profile'.
But when I run the exe file xyz.exe, it is trying to install Outlook connector for MS Outlook , but giving the following error.

Outlook Connector shared calendar lookup doesn't work for non-admins

First the version info:
JMS 6.2-8.04, Directory Server 5.2, Connector 7.2.402.1
Non-admin users are not able to retrieve a list of users from the GAL with Outlook Connector. I, as an admin, do get the list. Here is the the access log for a non-admin user. Note that in the RESULT, nentries is always zero.

Next, I followed the steps outlined in http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5200/gbnse?l=en&a=view&q=shared+calendar+ldap+lookup.
I set service.wcap.userprefs.ldapproxyauth = "yes"
I have the ACI entries as specified in that document.
(targetattr = "mail || uid || icsCalendar || givenName || sn || cn")
(targetfilter = (|(objectClass=icscalendaruser)(objectClass=icscalendarresource)))
(version 3.0;acl "Allow Calendar administrators to proxy - product=ics,class=admin,num=2,version=1";
allow (proxy)(groupdn = "ldap:///cn=Calendar Administrators, ou=Groups, o=cp");)

(targetfilter = (|(objectClass=icscalendaruser)(objectClass=icscalendarresource)))

acl "Allow Calendar users to read and search other users - product=ics,class=admin,num=3,version=1";
allow (read,search)
(userdn = "ldap:///uid=*,ou=People,o=pcc.edu,o=cp")
The only oddity I see is that the ACI entries are not passed down to the next directory levels.
Any thoughts?
David.

I reviewed the document and I believe the VLV browsing indexes are setup and functional. I've also checked the ACI entries and they look correct. (The document doesn't mention the ACI entries for proxy authentication.) As I said, an admin user can retrieve names from the GAL, a non-admin user cannot. The only difference in the access log is the returned nentries value.

Outlook Connector - Cannot share calendars

OK,
I am using the outlook connector sucessfully with the calendar server, messaging server and directory manager. I can collect mail and access the GAL without problem but I am not able to share my calendar with anyone nor view other shared calendars.
To share my calendar with another user I right click on my calendar and go to properties and then the permissions tab. On clicking the Add User button I can enter the userid or search.
If I click search I am able to access the GAL list and select a user. From my directory server logs I can see this action like so:
[05/Apr/2006:14:01:43 +0100] conn=3017 op=0 msgId=1 - BIND dn="uid=jberry,dc=mydomain,dc=com" method=128 version=3
[05/Apr/2006:14:01:43 +0100] conn=3017 op=0 msgId=1 - RESULT err=0 tag=97 nentries=0 etime=0 dn="uid=jberry,dc=mydomain,dc=com"
[05/Apr/2006:14:01:48 +0100] conn=3017 op=5 msgId=6 - SRCH base="uid=aname,dc=myname,dc=com" scope=0 filter="(&(mail=*)(cn=*))" attrs="cn displayName givenName sn initials uid departmentNumber title homePhone mail manager mobile company pager secretary description facsimileTelephoneNumber l physicalDeliveryOfficeName postalCode st street c telephoneNumber mailAlternateAddress objectClass"
[05/Apr/2006:14:01:48 +0100] conn=3017 op=5 msgId=6 - RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=1 etime=0]So the search binds to the directory using the uid of my user and returns the required search result (i.e. uid=aname).
Now, when you check your permissions and click OK to add that user as someone who can view your caledar for example it fails with the error message:
User not found. Either enter the email id of the user OR click on Search and then click on Find to locate the user
In the logs for the directory you now get the following:
[05/Apr/2006:14:02:48 +0100] conn=3018 op=0 msgId=1 - BIND dn="" method=128 version=2
[05/Apr/2006:14:02:48 +0100] conn=3018 op=0 msgId=1 - RESULT err=0 tag=97 nentries=0 etime=0 dn=""
[05/Apr/2006:14:02:48 +0100] conn=3018 op=1 msgId=2 - SRCH base="dc=mydomain,dc=com" scope=2 filter="(uid=auser)" attrs="cn uid mail givenName sn icsCalendar"
[05/Apr/2006:14:02:48 +0100] conn=3018 op=1 msgId=2 - RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=0 etime=0
[05/Apr/2006:14:02:48 +0100] conn=3018 op=2 msgId=3 - UNBINDSo now, for whatever reason, the connector is trying to bind anonymously to make the changes when anonymous bind is not permitted. Surely it should try and bind with my uid as it did when I searched the GAL to get the data...
... or am I looking at this the wrong way?
oh, I can share a calendar through the web interface and it will synch back down to the connector fine, and once a user is there I can change the permissions I can grant that user through the connector.
(p.s. sorry for the sill wide post)
Thanks
Josh

Check you have configured everything as mentioned in the following URL:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2568/6n4rm7fit?a=view
See the following section:
"Shared Calendar LDAP Lookup Configuration"
Pay attention to the fact that you need the following set in ics.conf:
service.wcap.userprefs.ldapproxyauth = "yes"
Let us know if you still have problems. BTW: What build of the connector are you running? You can find this out by selecting "Help -> About Sun Java System Connector for Microsoft Outlook". The build number is given in the top right hand corner of the about window. ie. 7.1.222.4.

Outlook Connector and shared calendar

Hi.
Looking for some help troubleshooting an issue with shared calendar functionality from Outlook using the Connector.
All server bits are JES-R2. Connector version is 6.0.129.
Connector is working for the most part, but when I try to subscribe to another users calendar from Outlook it is failing. Even when I do a search, and pick the user from the list, the lookup fails to return the user and I get "User not found. Either enter the email id of the user OR click on Search and then click Find to locate the user."
The ldap search I'm seeing in the access logs is curious in the sense that it seems to binding with dn="".
[23/Jun/2004:15:18:54 -0400] conn=346 op=0 msgId=1 - BIND dn="" method=128 versi

[23/Jun/2004:15:18:55 -0400] conn=346 op=-1 msgId=-1 - closed.
This is returning 0 entries, and I believe this is why it is failing. I believe the connector is probably using this search to retrieve the users calendar_id.
If I type the uid into the dialog box (to subscribe) I get this in the ldap:
===============================================================
[23/Jun/2004:14:12:58 -0400] conn=299 op=0 msgId=1 - BIND dn="" method=128 versi

This time, it has a proper uid (not a mail address) but still returns 0 entries.

Anyone have any clue as to what is the cause/fix???
Thanks,

If someone is still following this thread:
The problem seems to stem from the fact that the subscribe to calendar function from the connector (outlook) is searching ldap on uid, but using an email address as a value:
[06/Jul/2004:10:11:10 -0400] conn=8 op=42 msgId=43 - SRCH base="o=msgdemo.isdint egration.com,dc=msgdemo,dc=isdintegration,dc=com" scope=2 filter="(&(uid=[email protected])(!(icsStatus=deleted)))" attrs="cn"
[06/Jul/2004:10:11:10 -0400] conn=8 op=42 msgId=43 - RESULT err=0 tag=101 nentries=0 etime=0

Outlook connector, and shared calendar... again

Hi,
I'm using the communication suite through the communication express and outlook.
All work fine on both email client, but... with outlook, I can't see people's shared calendars.
Other functions work very well, like shared contacts, folders etc..., but when I want
to list shared calendar of any user, no one appears, and so, I can't subscribe.
(I can search people, find people, but when selected, no calendars...)
I took a look at the log (ldap server, oc logfile, etc...) and didn't see any error messages.
With comm. express, I can subscribe, see, modify. So I don't think there's an authentication problem.
I'm using outlook connector 7.2.402.1 on outlook 2003 SP3.
I'm new to sun comm. suite, so if I'm not accurate enough, ask me!
Best regards,
Rems, a new french user.

Connect JUST Outlook Calendar to Sun Java System Calendar Server

Is it possible to connect JUST the Outlook Calendar to a Sun Java System Calendar Server, using Sun Java System Connector for Microsoft Outlook 6.0?
Leaving all other outlook functionality hooked up to exchange?
Hal.

Hi,
Being disconnected straight away after authenticating to an MMP doesn't sound very healthy.
Has the MMP worked in the past - can you connect to the MMP with another email client such as Mozilla Thunderbird and collect your email?
Is the MMP AService.rc process crashing/core dumping?
What does the MMP IMAP log tell you/have you tried increasing the logging level and connecting again?
Regards,
Shane.

Outlook Connector - No Phonebook Server

Has anyone been able to use the Outlook Connector without using/supplying a phonebook server in the configuration?
TIA,
Dave

Hi,
There is already an RFE (request for enhancement) to remove the requirement to have the UWC based address-book (#6206267 - Make Address Book Server an optional component when configuring OC) - but as the engineers pointed out, removing the address-book requirement is more about removing UWC - which is also required for the mail-filter UI and out-of-office UI.
There was also concerns about storing contacts locally due to local PST corruption resulting in loss of all data - currently this isn't an issue since email/calendar/addressbook data is stored on the server.
Therefore there are no plans to implement this RFE in the near future. You are more then welcome to push this RFE with your Sun sales reps.
With regards to your UWC service, the latest versions of UWC e.g. 118540-42 have proven to be reliable -- if the number of support requests is anything to go by. What version/patch-level are you running?
Regards,
Shane.

Resource calendars in Outlook connector

I'm sure I am missing something terribly simple, but I'm hoping someone can advise me on subscribing to resource calendars in the Outlook connector. We are running System Messaging Server 6.2-7.05, SUNWics 116577-42 (2005Q4 + patches) against DS 5.2.5 on Solaris 10.
I have been creating resource calendars without problems, such as:
cn=Sliger Room 242, ou=resource_calendars,dc=fsu,dc=edu has cn: Sliger Room 242
cn=Sliger Room 242, ou=resource_calendars,dc=fsu,dc=edu has icsCalendar: ucs-sliger242
cn=Sliger Room 242, ou=resource_calendars,dc=fsu,dc=edu has icsDWPHost: calsvr.fsu.edu
If the resource calendar is owned by an Outlook user, it shows up for them just fine, and if they give access to other users, they users can subscribe in webmail, but I don't seem to be able to get the resources to show up in Outlook so that one can subscribe there without going through webmail.
First I thought that perhaps they needed to be visible to the Outlook GAL, so I reconfigured the GAL to include objectclass=icsCalendarResource. But though the objects can then be seen, the are still not found when searching for calendars to subsribe to, either by searching for a calendar name or by the owner's name.
I'd be grateful if someone could point me to a document for the dense, or recommend some gotcha's to check for.
Thanks,
Ethan

Thanks Shane,
I do appreciate you having a look. On the LDAP that the calendar server hits I see the query:

When I query for "Show shared calendars available whose user_id is Sliger" There is also quite a bit of chatter on the LDAP that backs the Global Address Book, but I'm not sure how relevant that is (be happy to share if it would be useful)
Running the top query returns:
ekromhout@ra:~$ ldapsearch -h v492.ucs.fsu.edu -D "cn=directory manager" -b "dc=fsu,dc=edu" -W -x '(&(icsCalendarOwned=*Sliger*)(objectClass=icsCalendarUser))' icsCalendarOwned

And the "icsCalendarOwned: ucs-sliger242$Sliger Room 242" is calendar I was hoping to add that has been read, invite, and availability shared with the Outlook user.

Can't open someones others calendar with Outlook Connector

Hi,
I can't open someones others calendar from within Outlook Connector. Outlook 2003 complains: Your profile is not configured to .....
What could be the reason and what's a possible solution ? I can open my calendar on the server, with the Calendar Client, I can open someones calendar, also with the Webclient.
Regs
Eric

Strange - I just configured 3 users with shared calendars, all running Office 20043/Outlook. This works fine, and all are able to watch each others calendar when the set up a meeting.
To be able to fully read another users calendar, I suppose the calendar owner must grant you rights to modify on behalf of the him?

Outlook Plugin for Calendar Server

Has any recent progress been made on this..?
Or perhaps there is a "payable" plugin alternative that I've missed out on..?
Now that Apple has the Exchange / iPhone coding almost wrapped up, perhaps they will be offering their loyal OS X Server Admins an Outlook Plugin, or is that wishful thinking..?
To be honest, the fact they haven't offered it indicates their "seriousness" level in moving forward in the Enterprise market with 10.5.x
All I want(ed) was a working Calendaring solution, which doesn't involve converting an entire business to Macs, ... ensuring everyone you invite "lives" in your Company, ... and that no one needs to wirelessly sync their iPhone iCal over the air!
When are we going to get a WORKING solution Apple..????? Really, ... when????
Cheers,
Steve

I agree. It makes no sense whatsoever to release iCal with no Outlook connector unless you never intended to do that or you want everyone to work out the bugs before a "real" release. I have an organization that I would love to move off of Exchange, but can't because they love Outlook. I can't even get an answer from anyone as to what to use besides Outlook, if I could get them on Neooffice or something else.

Cannot connect to SMTP server using Outlook Connector

Hi All,
I am trying to connect outlook client to my oracle mail server in OCS. I have succefully installed the Outlook connector but when i try to connect it gives me the following error:
The SMTP server is unavailable.
When i click on retry it gives me the option to enter the Server name, i type the server name with fully qualified domain name. ( i can ping the server from the client pc from where i am trying to connect). But no luck at all.
However i am able to send receive e-mail from the wb client, no issues at all, which means my SMTP server is up and running. I have also verified that listener_es process is up and running.
Any suggestions or ideas would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dipak.

Hi Naqi,
You are absolutely correct. I added the client in /etc/hosts file and it all worked well.
Not just connecting the client but also when i telnet on port 25 i dont get the spam error.
ALso, i have seen lots of your input on the forums and has been very helpfull.
Thankyou so much.
I will be attempting to migrate some of my users via export/import from .pst file. These users have about 9000 mails in their mail box. During the normal migration i had errors and couldnt migrate these users. Let me see how it goes now.
Regards,
Dipak
